In a horrific incident, a 30-year-old man allegedly killed his mother and two daughters at Gopalapeta village in Thallada mandal of Khammam district in the wee hours of Saturday.
The victims were identified as 60-year-old Pichamma and her granddaughters — 11-year-old Neeraja and six-year-old Jhansi.
The triple murder was triggered by the grudge the accused, Pittala Venkateshwarlu, allegedly nursed against his 60-year-old mother for registering her two-acre agricultural land in the name of her granddaughters, police said.
